Late-time Optical and X-Ray Emission Evolution of the Oxygen-rich SN 1996cr by Daniel Patnaude, Kathryn E. Weil, Robert A. Fesen, Dan Milisavljevic, Ralph P. Kraft

“…When the ejecta of a supernova (SN) interact with the progenitor star's circumstellar environment, a strong shock is driven back into the ejecta, causing the material to become bright optically and in X-rays. Most notably, as the shock traverses the H-rich envelope, it begins to interact with metal-rich material. …”
